Freepers In Stunned Silence After Cooper/"Gannon" Interview
Wow!! It was so freaking obvious even to THEM after reading the transcript, that their freeper brother in arms is a whore, you can almost hear the crickets after one of them posted the transcript!

Here's one of the two brilliant responses so far -- again, whatever you do REMAIN THE VICTIM. It's just in their nature to whine and never hold any of their own accountable for anything. How weak is THIS?

==============================================

"Thanks for posting the transcript, KidGlock. As I posted elsewhere, Bill Cosby is not going to be prosecuted! I'm glad. The charge was 1 year old and despite he said/she said stuff... the female waited 1 year to make her charge?

However, in the article:

Bill Cosby Won't Face Charges

I caught this:

"It is the policy of The Associated Press not to publish names of alleged sexual assault victims without their consent."

AP will publish the 'alleged' accused's name.
AP will shield (not publish) the "alleged" accuser's name.

Interesting, no?

And in the transcript, of Cooper interviewing Gannon, there is now an added spin: an "added" anonymous "voice" who has reported saying something negative about Mr. Gannon which is being repeated via Cooper's show to whomever is watching the show.

Would it be too much to ask Mr. Cooper to SAY whom this "anonymous" voice is? Or would that be in violation of fairness? Hmmm?"

=====================================================
LOL! Bill Cosby, another preaching jackass who lives in a glass house, IMO!!

3. Freeps are forced to defend an Illegal war based on bullshit,
sociopaths like "gannon" and rumsfeld, 300 billion paid out for a "2 billion dollar walk in the park war ", etc etc etc. They are completely and utterly fucked up.

for everyone to see. And they did see it. So what's their problem?

13. What interview? I've missed something big.
Edited on Fri Feb-18-05 11:09 PM by CottonBear
The cable modem at work went out yesterday and still wasn't fixed at 6pm today. (Thus leaving us totally out of communicationn with the web and e-mail.) I didn't get home from feeding my horse at the farm until after 9PM. Was this interview on CNN? What did he say? What did Cooper ask? I thoughtJim-Jeff got lawyered and STFU.

16. junior scrubbed down the Oval Office and got rid of any trace
of Monica. Now perhaps junior or Rove had a boyfriend? Then again maybe Jeff changed the oil on both Rove & junior, eh?

Who'll scrub down the Oval Office next?

http://bartcopnation.com/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=2&topic_id=353582&mesg_id=353582&page=

DEMONSTRATION IN SUPPORT OF JEFF GANNON
&
THE FIRST AMENDMENT
WHEN: FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2005, 6 P.M. TO 8 P.M.
WHERE: THE SIDEWALK BY MONICA’S GATE,
AKA THE NORTHWEST VISITORS ENTRANCE
THE WHITE HOUSE, 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE., NW, WASHINGTON, D.C.
(Washington) The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic, an independent grassroots organization, will be holding a demonstration at the White House this evening in support of former Talon News White House Correspondent Jeff Gannon and the rights of other reporters to do their jobs without fear of being destroyed by the political establishment.
The group will also be bringing attention to several First Amendment-related issues pertaining to the current imbroglio. Among them are the unconstitutional efforts of Democratic congressmen to determine who is a reporter and efforts by the establishment media to shut out Internet-based news sites from having access to government press conferences.

24. Irony appears to be a lost gene for FReepers
I've finally managed to move beyond the point of dissolving into laughter whenever I read about James "Jeff Gannon" Guckert -- it's just too delicious.

And, it's the irony that was setting me off. I don't give a ratsass about people who engage in a wide range of sexual activities -- as long as it's consenting adult. We all know that there has been a sexual explosion of exploration that coincides with the internet -- it brought low cost porn to anyone curious or interested 24/7. Just about everyone has learned "something" while being online.

What made the Gannon story so delicious was that he identified himself as part of the conservative right and even indulged himself in a bit of gay-bashing.

But, beyond that he considers the stuff that he's posted online as part of his personal life. Sorry, chump, if you post it online, it's no longer private and personal, ESPECIALLY if one's intent was to make money off of the material. He sold himself as a gay male prostitute. That's not a "personal" life.

From the Cooper interview:

GANNON: Well, I don't see it that way. But what was -- what's been done to me is far in excess of what has ever been done to any other journalist that I could remember. My life has been turned inside out and upside down. And, again, it makes us all wonder that if someone disagrees with you, that is now your personal life fair game? And I'm hoping that fair-minded people will stand up and say that what's been done to me is wrong, and that -- that people's personal lives have no impact on their ability to be a journalist, you know. Why should my past prevent me from having a future?


Actually, if he had the integrity to proclaim himself AS a Jeff Gannon, the man formerly known as "Bulldog," the gay male prostitute, he could continue to be a journalist -- if he can find someone who'd carry his writing. Of course, he COULD write his own blog as so many others do. It's just rather unlikely that any RW site will have very much to do with him.

Lastly, he targetted Daschle and was effectively the major cause of Daschle's recent loss in SD -- yet, he takes it amiss when similar tactics are used against him.

Well, hardyfuckingharhar

29. We have a responsibility to inform
Squeeze play-

I think the conservative "Christian' communitty deserves to know the truth about its leadership. We should as good Americans, inform our citizens of conservative persuasion who may not know the whole story. Our job should be to inform them of every detail on their message boards and organizations.

We have a journalistic responsibility to give accurate complete information. If they have a problem with a certain area, let them address the homosexual aspects.

To: KidGlock
FR is defending Gannon and celebrating "Black History" month. JimRob turns the other cheek for anyone who cares to slap. We've become who we think we aren't. What a world.
